Oneness

River runs in the incised rocky terrain
Boat plunges in a propelling whirlpool
Gyrating agony of attrition perpetuates
Time to get winsome winds of solace
On the battered sail.

Winter mist wraps the wilted horizon
Shrouded sun deludes the dreaming dawn
Sanctum of stratified gloom freezes within
Time to paint the patina of joy
On the petals of hope.

Sky crumbles into the sands of time
Hued rapture of rainbow melts away
I sink in the sea of boundless bliss within
Enlightened I find the oneness illumined
Between Him and me.

Sinking without, rising within - fascinating juxtaposition in the extraordinary tension depicted. Nicely done, Subimal. ~ gw
